What is the recommended age to do such a surgery?
I'm 19 this year.
400 short-sightedness on both eyes.

So far, Lasik or lasek is better? :/

2. Am I a suitable candidate?

A detailed eye examination is required to determine the candidacy of LASIK.
These general requisites must also be met:
• Adult above the age of 18
Healthy eyes with stable vision
• Must not be pregnant or nursing
• Sufficient corneal thickness with no signs of keratoconus

Taken from Optimax website.
I remember reading in a pamphlet somewhere that 'stable vision' is where your eye correction levels have not changed for at least 12 months. Will update here if I manage to find the source.

You might want to cite your source for that information bro.

Please don't just give numbers from out of thin air.
